Sobre IBD

In This Is Getting Old, Paul Taylor tells two intertwined stories.One is the tale of a long marriage shaped by time, as he and his wife navigate the realities of aging in the Adirondack community where their story began.The other is a candid reckoning with the Baby Boom generation, what it was given, what it got wrong, and what it leaves behind.Blending memoir with cultural and political insight, this is a thoughtful, often funny, sometimes painful, and ultimately hopeful reflection on love, legacy, and the country we pass on to those who follow. 6
